== WikiJournal of the Humanities needs you! ==

Hi Maunus!

I'm the editor-in-chief of the WikiJournal of the Humanities.
Given your experience with Misplaced Pages and understanding of academia, I'm emailing to ask whether you might be interested in getting involved as an editor for the . It's modelled on the successful Misplaced Pages-integrated journals, the ], and the ]. Our editorial board covers a range of fields and expertise, aiming to cover disciplines across the humanities, arts, and social sciences.
Our approach combines the rigour of academic peer review with the extensive reach of an encyclopedia. Consequently, it is an excellent way to achieve public engagement and outreach while impacting public understanding of complex scholarly topics. Articles undergo peer review and are subsequently published in both standard academic PDF format and directly onto Misplaced Pages, often getting over 100,000 views annually. This enhances the encyclopedia's scientific and factual accuracy and offers academics citable, indexed publications. Moreover, it enables significantly broader dissemination compared to traditional scholarly publishing methods.
The time commitment is flexible. An editor would generally dedicate 2-10 hours per month to a range of activities.
Please let me know if this aligns with your interests, or if you'd like to know more.
Your experience and expertise would be highly appreciated. ] ] 23:27, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

:Hi ], I did not know of these wikijournals, as I have been mostly inactive on wiki the last several years. Looking at the project, I think it looks very promising and in line with several ideas I have had for how to improve the scientific content of Misplaced Pages in the past. I would like to be involved with the wikijournal of Humanities. Thanks for inviting me. I would like to discuss further by email, magnuspharao at gmail - where perhaps you can tell me a bit more about the specifics of the tasks and procedures. ] · ] 09:30, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

I am not active on wikipedia any more, and am not inclined to jump up and fix stuff when someone cruises by a page I once wrote and find some detail they would like fixed at the threat of delisting it if I don't. I did my share of free work on this website. Now WP:SOFIXIT applies.

ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 2 December 2024. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
